Default Quality engine shop

2014 Z51 M7.

Looking for an experienced shop working with C7s. What to stay naturally aspirated. Nothing extreme but cam, heads?, headers & etc.
Someone with a good business history and client satisfaction. Thanks.

Where are you located? Sounds like you're looking for a tuner shop to do some go fast mods on your car?

There are a number of shops on this board if you look around. I went with Vengeance for mine and was very satisfied.

If you're just looking to do maybe headers, intake, and tune there are a lot of shops that will just send you a mail order tune if you can do the install yourself. Cam, heads, blower and stuff, I would contact a good shop.

My advice though is to not cut corners with a shop. The C7 is a totally different animal to tune and alot of the old LS tuners just don't have the experience yet like some of the big shops do.
